Some have, unfortunately, demonized Wright and written him off as a heretic. But that comes from the blogosphere more than from scholars and leaders. Piper made it clear that he did not consider this a matter of heresy vs. orthodoxy and was very charitable in his tone. He even sent Wright his manuscript in advance (a favor that WrightBrian G.
